“The very definition of a page-turner! This smart, original, twisty story had me gripped from the first to the last page.” —Liane Moriarty, New York Times bestselling author of Big Little Lies

A read-in-one-night suspense thriller narrated by a compulsive liar whose little white lies allow her to enter into the life and comfort of a wealthy married couple who are harboring much darker secrets themselves. For the millions of us still chasing those gone girls, this is perfect for fans of Lisa Jewell, Lucy Foley, and Laura Dave.

Sloane Caraway is a liar.

Harmless lies, mostly, to make her self-proclaimed sad, little life a bit more interesting.

So, when Sloane sees a young girl in tears at a park one afternoon, she can’t help herself—she tells the girl’s (very attractive) dad she’s a nurse and helps him pull a bee stinger from the girl’s foot.

With this lie, and chance encounter, Sloane becomes the nanny for the wealthy and privileged Jay and Violet Lockhart—the perfect New York couple, with a brownstone, a daughter in private school, and summers on Block Island.

But maybe Sloane isn’t the only one lying, and all that’s picture-perfect harbors a much more dangerous truth. To say anything more is to spoil the most exciting, twisty, and bitingly smart suspense novel to come out in years.

The thing about lies is that they add up, form their own truth and a twisted prison of a world. And in Count My Lies, Sophie Stava spins an “utterly gripping and unputdownable” (Amy Tintera, New York Times bestselling author) thriller about the secrets we keep, and the terrifying dangers that lurk just under the images we spend so much time trying to maintain.

Careful what you lie for.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"What happens when a pathological liar ingratiates herself into a family of three? The author uses the technique of the unreliable narrator, and narrators Andrew Eiden, Devon Sorvari, Emily Tremaine handle it well. A limited number of characters are involved, but the narrators especially shine while portraying the family’s young daughter, Harper. She has clipped sentences, a whining tone at times, and sounds like the 5-year-old she is...the cast is well used and is important since perspective is critical to the plot. The listener will learn that lives—and lies, for that matter—are not always what they seem."

Great fun, in a scary way

Well written, and unexpected twists that kept you listening to find out the fascinating ending to a believable, while diabolical revenge plot to get even with a scumbag of a guy.

Quick easy read found it entertaining

Great performance and interesting story. Kind of knew some of the twists before they happened, but it was still enjoyable to listen to while cleaning the house.

Fun read

This was a fun one with some unexpected twists and turns and the performance was entertaining.

Didn’t expect the ending!

This is a great listen. Performances are good, sort is interesting. Flawed characters all around. I’m a person who generally guesses the ending … not this time!

The ending is a shocker!

This book was a fun listen. I have to admit the character of Sloane was such a liar, but that is the title of the book lol. The performances made the characters come alive especially the character of Sloane. It was a fun listen and I caught myself being shocked at all the lies…
